Join Haunted Rooms for an unforgettable night of ghost hunting at THE Most Haunted Building in England!

A ghost hunt at the Ancient Ram Inn is an opportunity you don’t want to pass on. This incredible building is the holy grail of haunted locations, and it’s one of the only places we investigate that truly supersedes its huge reputation.

This ancient home will disorientate you with dark, twisting corridors and its oppressive atmosphere. A night spent at this world-famous haunted venue is an absolute must for any paranormal enthusiast. The only question you need to ask yourself is, do you have what it takes?

Because of the reported spectres seen and experienced in the house, it has been investigated by various paranormal researchers, including such television shows as Most Haunted and the US series Ghost Adventures.

One popular legend surrounding the Ancient Ram Inn is the supposed witch who was burned at the stake in the 1500s. Her crime? Not believing or practising Christianity, a law the government had ruled punishable by death.

Many people believe that the troubled woman’s spirit still haunts the building to this day. It is thought that the woman was hiding in one of the rooms before she was captured and killed. Today, that room is known as “The Witch’s Room”.

It is widely believed that the redirecting of water on the Ancient Ram property caused a portal for dark energy to open up. The past owner, John Humphries, attested to the spectres that made the house their home.

During John’s first night, he claimed to have been grabbed by the arm by a demonic force and dragged from the bed across the room.

John found evidence of Devil worship and ritual sacrifice too. He discovered the skeletal remains of children just under the staircase. Broken daggers were also found within the skeletons.

Until his death, he claimed to be haunted and regularly attacked by various entities in the house. There have been many sightings of previous owners of the inn residing and sitting together with the patrons of today’s time.

One of the most haunted rooms in the entire inn is called “The Bishop’s Inn”. The room is found on the first floor of the house.

When the inn was still a bed and breakfast, many guests would not want to sleep in the room. Some who did sleep ended up fleeing in the middle of the night. It is said that the ghost of a monk haunts the room regularly.

The ghost of a centurion on horseback has also been spotted. It is said that the plumber who saw the apparition was startled out of his wits when the apparition went straight through the wall. There is also talk of a succubus that creeps into the beds of sleeping visitors.

The inn was built in 1145. Priests used the inn years ago to keep slaves and workers who helped construct the St. Mary Church. In 1930, the inn was bought by Maurice de Bathe. Since then, the inn has become private property, changing hands several times.

The land where the inn is built is at the intersection of 2 Ley Lines. These are places where people believe in having high spiritual energy. When you use a map, you can trace the lines through the centre of Stonehenge. According to legend, Stonehenge has an energy that travels through the Ley Lines to feed the paranormal power found in the Ancient Ram Inn. Furthermore, an ancient Pagan burial ground is reported to have resided in the location over 5,000 years ago.

On a ghost hunt at The Ancient Ram Inn, you will take part in a host of group vigils and experiments as we try to make contact with the active spirits that are attached to this historic building.

You will join our friendly, experienced team taking part in various experiments and seances, as well as having complete access to our range of paranormal equipment throughout the evening.

We keep our groups small so you have a much more personable experience, with little chance of being interrupted by other groups or suffering noise contamination.

Your evening at the Ancient Ram Inn is a real paranormal investigation, we leave out the fluff, we do not have actors, and we don’t fake activity.

Do you have what it takes to participate in a lone vigil in the Witche’s Room?

What to Expect

On your ghost hunt with Haunted Rooms, you will have full exclusive access to the most haunted areas of this historic location. Together with our friendly team of investigators, you will join others on structured vigils, where you’ll have the chance to use some paranormal equipment and join in on group vigils such as Ouija board sessions, and seance.

Our event starts at 9.00 pm but you can arrive at the earliest 8.15 pm. Structured investigations will end around 12-1 am, at which point you will have the opportunity to investigate this location on your own using the techniques and information you have been provided with.

You will have the chance to look around the building before the event to familiarise yourself with its layout. Shortly before the event kicks off, we’ll run you through a quick induction and safety briefing, followed by a short talk and introduction from our team. You’ll then split into smaller groups with your family and/or friends if you’ve come together, and we’ll begin our vigils for the night!

If you have your own paranormal equipment we encourage you to bring it, if not we can provide them free of charge. Snacks, refreshments, and treats will be provided at intervals throughout the night, and we’ll have facilities to make hot and cold drinks too.

We do endeavour to have mediums and sensitives with us for every event, although circumstances out of our control can sometimes prevent this. Anybody that has sensitive abilities we encourage you to come forward, as it only increases the energy and enjoyment for all in attendance.

To get the most from the evening we encourage you to try your hand at as many things as you can, and if you’re feeling particularly brave you should give a lone vigil a try, as well as joining in with our table tipping experiments as we try to commune with the spirits and ghosts of the building.

Please dress weather appropriately, with extra layers of clothing if it’s cold, plus comfortable shoes and a torch if you need one.
